Process and Success Rates

Egg donation process and Success rates

With advancements in In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF), many couples struggling with infertility can now experience the joy of parenthood. Egg donation is a crucial solution for women who have poor egg quality, hormonal imbalances, or age-related fertility issues.

The Egg Donation Process

The donor provides personal details, including name, age, photographs, and medical history.

A donor coordinator interview is conducted, and the donor signs consent forms

The donor undergoes genetic testing to rule out any hereditary disorders.

A psychological assessment ensures mental stability and no history of mental illness

Once approved, the donor takes medications to stimulate egg production.

Regular ultrasounds and blood tests monitor follicle growth

When the eggs are mature, they are retrieved through a minor surgical procedure.

The retrieved eggs are fertilized with the recipient partner’s sperm in a laboratory-controlled environment

The best quality embryo is transferred to the recipient mother’s uterus.

The donor undergoes a post-egg retrieval check-up

Success Rates of Egg Donation

The average success rate of IVF with donor eggs ranges between 55% and 75% per cycle, depending on the clinic’s expertise, donor health, and recipient’s uterine condition.

Younger egg donors (under 30) generally contribute to higher success rates.
